The OPINION OF the Chief Justice
yesserdsy afternoon, In relation 10 Mr..
L res motion so quAsh the indictment
in the case OF Jeremiah Z. Wood,
Char ged with violating the market law,
brough. ont one very important point,
which was, that no owner or lesse OF
property has . right to rent the four
foot spase from the building line 10 an
other party, for the transaction OF any
business. He said the sidewalk exsenda
from the building line to the curb, and
thu. IS steps and sometimes cellar
DO ,rs arc necessary they ere tolerated,
but beyond that anything else is an OBJ
Btruotion. II this is good Law the cor.
ner stands will have TO 60, ~ according
10 this opinion they are obstructioni
which need not be tolerated. The mat
tar OF these stands has leug been I
source OF complaint on the part Of man!
sof our merchants, Who justly claim tha
while they are obliged to pay higl
Ients and taxes, the owpeIs Of thes
stands are under comparatively nttl
expense, and are thereby enabled
undersell them. The q uestion OF th
legality OF the corner stands shoul
have been settled long ago. and Il
o1iy way in which 1t oan ever be dol
II for the merchants, who consid
themselves sggrieved, to combine
gethsr, and take . test case TO ooul
and then both sides will have to abi
by the decision.

The CASE Of Andrew j. Randall, one
of tho detectives who aided In the sup
prsssion OF the policy business In this
city, 10 Of more importance than might
be supposed, and involves some very
vital issues. This man was brought
here from Philadelphis 10 perfor n an
Important work, for the contamination
Of which 1t became necessary for him
10 bs sworn In % special police Off GER,
which was legally done by Mayor
Rhoads. In the exercise OF the author
tsy CON .esred 90 him, he arrested James
A. Anderson on suspicion Of being con.
osrned In the policy business. When
sbs Gases were heard by Judge Oum'
mins, Anderson succeeded In proving
70 ths satisfaction OF the court that he
had no connection wha.ever with the
business, and he was discharged from
custody. He then had Mr.. Randall
arrested on . charge OF false arrest, and
he was plAced under heavy bonds for
his appearance TO answer the charge 10
n civil suit for damages, and the length
% which this matter has been pushed
gives 1t more the appearance OF perse-
cution OF . man for performing hi
sworn duty, than Of prosecution Of I
violAtor OF the Law or for infrin ging OF
tbs rights OF . citizen. We hear OF mel
bsing arrested daily on suspicion o
having 90 N nitted . crime or violated
the law, and II Off ,ers are to be prose
cuted for making suoh arrests 1t vii
have the effect In hundreds OF inBtan oe
OF aiding the guilty to escape. All sue
oasss should be ruled out OF court, uu
less 1t could be shown that the arret
was malicious and without any ground
on which TO base 0 suspicion.

1t IL estimated that not less than 9, 0OO. 900
kittens are annually brought into this sinful
world. OF these the great majority are mis.
erably drowned-s practice which II destined
shortly to be done away with BY the recogni.
tion OF the cat as fur-bearing animal. Rugs
of selected Maltese and tortoise shell are Al
ready quite expensive and excellent imita-
tons OF various furs are made OF this mater.
isl. Taxidermists, too, are advertising for
kittens by the Thousand to stuh for Orna-
mental purposes. At present the only pur.
pose to which they are applied in this coun.
try Is the manufacture OF carriage robea, but
vast numbers OF them are sent to Europe,
where they are in great demand for coats and
hats, dressing gown Innings and other gar.
ments.
The pelts come from all parts OF the coun.
try. They are gathered by professional col.
lectors, who supply them by the quantity at
regular schedule rates. A common cat skin
is worth five cents, pure maltese, ton cents,
and . black one, twenty-five cents. The
cheap kind must be dyed before making up
but the black and maltese are prettier with
their color unaltered. A carriage robe OF the
best cat fur is worth from so 70 $50. There
are always plenty OF stray csts running wild
in the rural districts. The Maine woods are
full OF them. They breed wonderfully fast,
and II is coed sport popping them of the
fences and stone walls along the roadsideA
